the past 3 years
Stabilization of the Economy:
– Improvement in the fiscal balance

– Lower risk premium and interest rates
– Record low inflation
– Stabilization of the banking system

Comparative Growth
• But what about sustainable,
long-term, high growth?
• How does Romania converge
with richer EU countries?
• Sustained growth is different
from economic recovery
Romania and Economic Institutions
• Is Romania’s economic structure welladapted for stable, high economic
growth?
• I would say not yet.
• Difference between “policies” and
“institutions”
Romania’s growth challenge
• 0. Maintain macroeconomic stability
• 1. Increase the quantity and quality of
capital in the economy
• 2. Increase the quantity and quality of
labor
• 3. Improve the physical infrastructure
that firms and workers use (roads,
railways, electricity, water, etc.)
• 4. Improve the institutional infrastructure
1. How can Romania increase
Capital?
Investment
• Financial sector:
– Assure good functioning of the
banking system
– Reduce country risk interest rates
down, investors come
• Absorb EU investment funds!
• Privatization, private participation
2. How can Romania increase Labor?
• Improve market functioning
higher productivity
• Higher labor force participation
• Reduce informal economy formal
economy
• Human capital: Education and
training
3. Improving physical infrastructure
• EU funds absorption
• Prioritizing public investment
• Attract private capital/improve
efficiency of public enterprises in
infrastructure
• Improve regulatory framework
• Embedded technology vs.
innovation
3. Improving physical infrastructure
• EU funds absorption
• Prioritizing public investment
• Attract private capital/improve
efficiency of public enterprises in
infrastructure
• Improve regulatory framework
4. Improving the “institutional”
infrastructure
• The laws, norms, institutions (public and
private) and customs that determine the
economic environment.
• It is the rule of law, but also much more.
– Examples: constitutions, the EU acquis.
4. Improving the “institutional”
infrastructure
• Structural reforms under the IMF/EU
program have aimed at improving
policies, sometimes with improvements
in institutions.
• Examples:
– Pension reform (policy and institutions)
– Fiscal responsibility law vs. deficit
reduction
– SOE reforms, privatization
4. Improving the “institutional”
infrastructure
• But much more is needed:
– Legal system reforms
• Need to make the system more efficient, more
predictable, less costly (in money AND time)
– Public sector reforms to improve efficiency.
• Functional reviews
• Tax optimization
• Simplify and reduce bureaucracy
• Improve regulatory framework
•

4. Improving the “institutional”
infrastructure
Legal system reforms
Public sector reforms to improve
efficiency
Improve regulatory framework
Attack corruption
“Simplicity, transparency,
accountability”
Conclusions
• Romania has many characteristics
needed for sustained growth:
– Macroeconomic stability has been
regained and may be more robust this time
– Geographic advantages
– Natural resources
– Large, educated population that is
underutilized
Conclusions
• Policies have improved, but institutions
are a challenge
– Legacy of communism
– Imported institutions from the EU, but not
complete or ideal.
– Rent-seeking behavior vs. wealth creation.
– Institutional stability and efficiency needed
for investment and innovation.
Destination Romania
Romania’s environment
• attractive, rich and
various
• a diversity of relief
forms – mountains,
hills and plateaus,
plains, coastal zones
-, flora and fauna,
thanks to it
geographical position.
Romania - the country of the Carpathians,
the Danube and the Black Sea
• The Carpathians make an
almost compact ring, with
the Transylvania Plateau
inside
• Forests cover over a
quarter of the country and
the fauna is one of the
richest in Europe
including wolves, bears,
deer, lynx and chamois.
Romania - the country of the Carpathians,
the Danube and the Black Sea
• Romania has the greatest
surface of the
hydrographic basin of the
Danube, controlling 38%
of the navigable course.
• The Danube forms the
southern boundary of the
country terminating in the
Delta on the Black Sea, a
heaven for countless
native and migratory
birds.
Romania - the country of the Carpathians,
the Danube and the Black Sea
• And finally, the
country is located on
the western coast of
the Black Sea with a
marine opening of
245 km, which
confers on it a special
status.
At present, Romanian tourism industry is characterized by the following
indicators:
• 7.5 million foreign visitors in 2010 (down from 8.9 million
in 2008…); out of which, 7.1 million visitors are coming
from Europe (the most important markets being
Moldavia, Bulgaria, Germany, Italy, Turkey, France,
Russia and Spain);
• 10.9 million outbound Romanian tourists (same year);
the main destinations are Italy, Greece, Hungary,
Bulgaria, Spain, Austria and Turkey;
• more than 1,000 million US Dollars revenue from
international tourism, but this amount is quite low in
comparison with other European countries;
• 3,405 millions US$ in GDP (or 2.04%) and
• 270,000 jobs (3.2% of the total number of employees in
Romania), showing a quite low participation of the
tourism in the total Romanian economy (WEF, 2011).

International tourist arrivals in Romania (thousands of tourists)
• all types of tourism programs offered by Romania meet a
strong competition from the West-European markets;
• other countries have a large variety of offers for
categories of tourists, but the Romanian offer is, in a
way, limited, concentrated only in a few resorts, and
there, only in a few hotels;
• by comparison with competitors from Bulgaria, Turkey,
Greece or Cyprus, the quality of the service in Romania
is lower;
• the entertainment is less diversified;
• technical and transportation infrastructure is inadequate;
• it is imperative to improve the comfort level in hotels in
large urban areas and in the resorts for foreign tourists;
• concerning the quality/ price ratio or the value for money,
Romania is not anymore an attractive tourism market.
• the main destinations are Transylvania (Dracula’ tours, fortresses,
landscapes), Bukovina (UNESCO monasteries with mural paintings,
rural tourism, gastronomy and traditions), Maramures (UNESCO
wood churches, landscapes, old villages with tradition and
handicrafts), Bucharest (museums, Palace of Parliament, night life
and casinos), the Delta of Danube (cruises, birdwatching, fishing
and heritage), Carpathian Mountains (active holidays) and seaside;
• highly appreciated are the patience, hospitality, benevolence, and
sociability of the people, great satisfaction with accommodation,
information and business services;
• main negative aspects are related to infrastructure and the lack of
professionalism of the employees around the tourism, the meals and
leisure facilities, the non-competitive prices compared to neighbour
destinations (Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece);
• the persistence of some problems about the image of Romania as a
tourism destination (pocket lifters, taxi drivers which cheat the
customers, stray dogs, lack of cleanliness, lack of parks and public
toilets etc.);
• the marketing efforts abroad were inconsequent and/or insufficient.
Compared to its main competitors, Romania seems to be
not competitive:
